Hello beautiful ladies, today is World Suicide Prevention Day and I felt very moved to talk about postpartum depression and anxiety as it is a increasing cause of suicide within mothers. This episode is very important to me because PPD and PPA are a topic in women's healthcare that has been kept silence for too long. Join me in starting a conversation and working to end the stigma around PPD and PPA.
